Background technology
Most plants biological material (such as timber) is referred to as ligno-cellulosic materials, and it includes three kinds main group Divide, i.e. cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.
Cellulose:The polysaccharide being made up of the straight chain of the D-Glucose unit of β (1 → 4) connections, generally comprise 7,000 to 15,000 glucose molecules.
Hemicellulose:It is about but derived from a variety of sugar and by shorter chain (about 200 sugar units) with cellulose The polysaccharide of composition, described a variety of sugar include glucose, xylose, mannose, galactolipin, rhamnose and arabinose.
Lignin:It is the cross-linked macromolecular that molecular weight is higher than 10,000, it has relative hydrophobicity and armaticity.It is wooden Element is rich in Phenylpropanoid Glycosides (phenylpropanoid), such as p- tonquinols (p-coumaryl alcohol), coniferyl alcohol and mustard seed Alcohol.
Think that lignin may replace petrochemical, turn into the ideal source of basic chemical industry product.It is of course desirable to from biomass It is " green " technology to isolate any method of lignin in material all to have the method used in minimum environmental pollution thus, and And it is desirable that described method has low energy consumption and produces seldom discarded object.
Various methods are studied, for example, someone uses the various inorganic chemicals in water to lignin It is modified, it is water miscible to become.But there is the problem of recovery or destruction aspect of inorganic chemical in this method.
Lignin is dissolved out by other known methods using organic solvent from ligno-cellulosic materials.These methods can Energy cost is very high, and due to organic solvent is reclaimed or handled, therefore these methods are unsatisfactory.
Also acid and alcohol is used in combination in other method under aqueous environments.May be to this method but excessive water be present It is unfavorable, and uses the acid of high concentration to need with expensive recovery system.
Various trials are had been carried out at present, to provide the method suitable for the separating lignin from ligno-cellulosic materials.
Past (such as in the 1930s), people have been described for many methods, and these methods include containing using various Water organic solvent handles ligno-cellulosic materials.But solvent (such as ethanol) is separated from the water out by these methods due to being difficult to Come, thus be generally proved these methods it is inefficient and/or still have some deficits part.
Recently, United States Patent (USP) No.3,932,207 disclose a kind of method, and this method is before boiling, with lignin solubilising It is former that reactant (lignin-solubilising reactant) is dissolved in the solution dipping lignocellulosic obtained after organic solvent Material fragment, the boiling point of the organic solvent are more than boiling temperature.The material impregnated is immersed in a kind of liquid afterwards, the liquid Body can not be miscible with the solvent in the solution.
United States Patent (USP) No.4,520,105 disclose a kind of method, and this method comprises the steps:With water and lower alcohol or The mixture of acetone carries out Chemical Pretreatment, and then, gained residue is separated, afterwards at elevated temperatures, with similar Solvent mixture is handled.But water-alcohol mixture or boiling mixture can not be easily divided into two-phase by this method. Also need to further handle moreover, isolating lignin from the sugar dissolved, such as fully washing.
United States Patent (USP) No.4,594,130 discloses a kind of neutral or acid mixed with alcohol and water under anaerobic, hot conditions The cooking process that liquid is carried out is closed, contains magnesium salts, calcium salt or barium salt as catalyst in the mixed liquor.Catalyst is to contribute to half Cellulose is remained in cellulose filter residue (cellulosic cake).
European patent application 86305606.5 discloses one kind ester, organosolv lignin solvent and water digestion lignocellulosic The method of material.The lignin solvent can be organic acid or alcohol, or their mixture, and it is in described ester and water It is miscible.Although feed liquid cooling obviously can be produced into some phase separations, still need to be centrifuged.
Recently, United States Patent (USP) No.5,730,837 disclose at 140 DEG C, using 24% water, 44% methyl it is different Sulfuric acid separating biomass in butyl ketone and 32% ethanol, the yield of lignin are calculated as 18% with timber inventory.
